Menu-Shortcuts

[hblaschka]

There is a feature I am used from Typo3 (I´ve gone the same way as you, Oliver!): Menu-Shortcuts.

For those of you who don´t know Typo3, I will describe that feature briefly:

If you use a Menu-Point as Folder for several other pages inside, at the moment you will always have to fill a (useless) page with information, and the user has to click one of the submenus to jump to the content.

There are two ways to solve this problem/feature-request (three with the way it is solved now):

1. Jump to the first page inside the tree.
2. Jump to a free-defined page inside the tree or any other side (even outside the CMS)
3. Keep it the way it is now (which should be standard).

OK, another addition for the menus:

If we use Menupoints as folders for inlying other menupoints it would be nice if we could get the possibilty to decide wether or not the menus are open to (lets assume) level 2 (or any other level) by default on every page.

Hi all,

Create in the first menuitem (which serves as a header for the menustructure) an article with no content.
Fill in the redirect box with "http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?id= _top"

where id should be the catid of the menu where you want to jump to, for example the first submenu-item with real content.
not the articleid, but the categoryid of the menu-item.
it will then show the article inside that menu-item

This is all present in the current release and works well.

regards
